JAKARTA - Fried rice is one of the foods that many Indonesians like. In addition to the delicious and filling taste, making fried rice is also easy and cheap.
To make fried rice only requires simple ingredients, namely rice, shallots, garlic, eggs, soy sauce, seasonings, to additional side dishes according to taste. However, the third winner of MasterChef Indonesia 8, Chef Lord Adi, said that to make delicious and fragrant fried rice, there are several things to consider, as below.
Chef Lord Adi said to make fried rice, you have to make sure the oil in the pan is completely hot. This is because the cooking process for fried rice is fast, and the heat must be adjusted so that all ingredients are perfectly cooked.
"In making fried rice, make sure everything is hot, because the process is all fast. Enter, input, quickly," said Chef Lord Adi when met in Central Jakarta, on Tuesday, February 25, 2025.
When cooking fried rice, put the garlic first into a pan that already contains hot oil. Garlic that has been fried will produce a distinctive fragrance later for fried rice.
"We start from garlic first, yes, because in my own cooking, garlic is dominant. We need him to brown, it smells good. If the shallot is sweat, he releases the water. Then only shallots, vegetables, then rice," he explained.
